Rescue me, O Yahweh, from evil men;

Guard me from violent men

Who think up evil things in their hearts;

They continually stir up wars.

They sharpen their tongues as a serpent;

Poison of an asp is under their lips . . .

I said to Yahweh, “You are my God;

Give ear, O Yahweh, to the voice of my supplications.”

— Psalm 140:1-3; 6 LSB

Speaker Mike Johnson does put out a rousing speech, but I recall my excitement to a post I did here of his speech before his first speakership where he was promising no more loot for Ukraine.

Then he promptly reversed once he was running the show.

Won't expect any difference now, but at least expectations are properly set.
